This I do not know. Can You help me?


Just take a look at all the other patches that went into the
kernel to do this for other drivers. You only really
need to change the line with .ioctl=... to .unlocked_ioctl=
and change the prototype of the referenced function to

static long foo_ioctl(struct file *file, unsigned int cmd, unsigned long arg)

int nv_kern_ioctl(struct inode *, struct file *, unsigned int, unsigned long);

It seems different. How to change it? Now it works, I built it without your remarks, exactly how I described on my blog:
